If you are worried about a cavity
A baby tooth is still worth checking.
It is tempting to reason that the tooth will fall out eventually anyway. Yet baby teeth help children eat and speak, they support confidence, and they hold space for the permanent teeth still developing underneath. Decay or infection in one of them can still hurt and interfere with daily life, so a mark you are unsure about deserves a look.
Not every discolouration turns out to be a cavity, and a photo or a guess at home cannot sort that out. The examination is adapted to your child’s age, comfort and way of communicating. For some children, sitting in the chair and opening for a quick look is a real achievement at a first appointment, and any further steps can be discussed from there.

Getting a child ready
Keep the talk short and calm.
How you describe the appointment beforehand can make a real difference to how it starts.
Request your visit- 01
Say it simply
You might explain that the dentist will count and take care of their teeth. It is better not to promise that nothing will hurt, or to retell tough dental stories from your past.
- 02
Pack what helps
A favourite comfort item is welcome if it settles them. Bring along current health information and whatever you want to ask about brushing, diet or habits.
- 03
Point out the spot
Tell the team which tooth caught your eye and when you first saw it. From there, the dentist can explain what it appears to be and what is recommended.

A little clarity before your visit
Your questions, answered.
Helpful details about general dentistry in Aurora.
Ask our teamIs every dark spot on a baby tooth a cavity?
No, and that is why looking is worthwhile. A dentist can examine the tooth and explain what the mark seems to be, as appearance alone can be misleading.
My child has no pain. Can this wait for a while?
Early decay may not hurt at all, so comfort is not a reliable test. Requesting a look fairly soon gives you an answer in place of ongoing worry.
Will my child need a filling in a tooth that will fall out?
That depends on what the examination shows and on your child’s age and needs. The dentist can go through what is advisable for that particular tooth.
What if my child will not let anybody look?
It happens, and it is not a failed visit. Tell the team what your child finds hard ahead of time, since knowing that helps them plan a more comfortable approach.
Does one cavity mean I am doing something wrong?
A question like this is better met with practical help than blame. Bring your family’s routines to the appointment, and the guidance can be shaped around diet, brushing and daily life.
How can a parent living in Aurora ask for a look at the tooth?
Describe the spot in the online request or phone (204) 338-3003. The clinic will come back to you about timing, because the form itself does not secure an appointment.
